This is an aging giant star with a stellar classification of K3III.[4] It is a red clump giant, indicating it is on the horizontal branch and is generating energy through the fusion of helium at its core.[3] The star is 2.4 billion years old with 1.7 times the mass of the Sun.[2] With the supply of hydrogen exhausted at its core, it has expanded to 16 times the radius of the Sun. The star is radiating 92 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,468 K.[1]
